The site for Finnish Game Jam 2014 is up and running, so to keep up to date of the next big game jamming event, visit http://finnishgamejam2014.com!

We also have a new site for Finnish Game Jam ry, a site that will function as an information channel about our organization, all of our events and activity. Pay a visit to http://www.finnishgamejam.com/.

Attention all jammers! Finnish Game Jam is running a game jam at Assembly Summer ‘13. This first Assembly game jam, or ASM FGJ, will be a small pilot project of about 20 jammers. If all goes well, it might become a tradition.

The game jam is open for everyone, but due to the limited size, we will only be able to fit in the fastest ones to sign up. At the moment we still have a couple of seats left, so if you act quickly you might have a chance to be involved in this historical event. To sign up and for more information, contact fgjhelsinki@gmail.com as soon as possible.

The game jam is over, but there is still stuff to do! We are now collecting feedback from the event, and the voting of the Jammers’ Favorite game is ongoing.

Feedback from everyone somehow involved in the game jam is welcome, whether you were a jammer, an organizer, or a visitor at any of the locations. Go to the survey and help us improve the event!

In regards to Jammers Favorite, only jammers can vote. The voting instructions have been sent via email to jammers. If you haven’t received an email, please contact kati.alha[a]uta.fi and let us know which location you participated in.

This year, Finnish Game Jam was organized in twelve locations: Helsinki, Kajaani, Kouvola, Kotka, Jyväskylä, Lappeenranta, Oulu, Pohjois-Karjala, Rovaniemi, Satakunta, Tampere, and Turku. Altogether 513 jammers participated in Finnish sites, exceeding all expectations. The jammers are now sweating with just a few minutes before the deadline, and then start uploading the games to the Global Game Jam website.
